The Department collaborates with schools in Sheffield and across the country in various ways, raising aspirations and helping teachers to enrich their students’ learning experience.
Videos for the Classroom
We have a growing number of videos designed for use in the classroom, most conveniently accessed through Youtube.
If you have suggestions for a topic you would like to see covered in this way by one of our historians, please contact the department.
Talking Heads is the name of a scheme in which our historians 'skype' for 15 minutes into school classrooms, to answer questions about their specialisms, usually in connection with A-level work.
We also periodically run events for A-level students and their teachers, ranging from A2 workshops to CPD days for history teachers.
